     PADI Diver Continuing Education Program

Our PADI Continuing Education (Con-ED) courses are formed as Divers register.

We have courses posted (at the bottom of page) that may work for your busy schedule but they are not the only ones forming. We start classes as Divers sign-up to allow for a more flexable schedule. If the posted course has an openng and fits your calendar, that's the one for you. If there isn't one, we will form a course around you, it's that simple. Your class can be as few as one student or a whole group.

Don't wait for a course to post, sign-up today and be the first in line. 

        What to do next:
    • Stop by the dive center today or call 315.458.1955 to sign up for the Specialty Certification Course you want and have our Training Lead Team put together the schedule that works for you!

For our Divers from the Binghamton New York Area........Excellent buoyancy control is what defines skilled scuba divers. You have seen them underwater. They glide effortlessly, use less air and ascend, descend or hover almost as if by thought. They more easily observe aquatic life without disturbing their surroundings. You can achieve this, too. The PADI Peak Performance Buoyancy Specialty course improves the buoyancy skills you learned as a new diver and elevates them to the next level. PADI (Junior) Open Water Divers or higher, who are at least 10 years old, are eligible to take the Peak Performance Buoyancy course......Required 7mm wetsuit or Drysuit, Hood and Gloves
